Hey everyone!

I'm looking to talk to specifically beginners (newbie level) who have already put a lot of time into grinding CP, and ask about your experience — whats working for you and what isn't! and in return, I'm happy to help out with any questions you have about recent problems or anything in general!

Edit: Pausing these calls for now — maybe will reopen at some point :) — thanks to all who signed up!

What is your end goal here? If you're tryna get paid, you should definitely be more upfront about it. For example, it would be dishonest if, after a session, you sent someone a paypal for "donations" cuz they would feel pressured to pay you. That would be kind of like those people who oddly don't seem to speak any normal language fluently who put those bracelets made of garbage or whatever on tourists in Europe for "free" but then ask to be paid right after. I'm not accusing you of doing something like this, but I just think you should definitely be more clear that this is not what you're doing.

Also, $$$2200 \,\,\text{cf} \approx 3000 \,\,\text{lc}$$$. link

    I'm not doing that. My goal is to learn more about how people (specifically those new to competitive programming) think of the pros and cons of various CP learning tools — hence why I will ask some questions about whats working and not working / what tools or training methods you have tried or decided not to try.

        Does solving A+B consistently means that i will surpass 1000-1100? Or it requires A+B+C?

          A+B fast and c is normal or hard is enough, but to reach 1200 either normal time but a + b + c or very fast a and b is enough, there is a big dependency on the difficulty of c coz if it was ez it is a must to solve

      I checked your graph, and I believe you just need to focus on contests on your level. DIV2 is hard and clearly not for newbies. You should focus on DIV3 and DIV4, and try to solve problems in every domains.
